A company ski trip in Gstaad
Swiss, stylish and never rushed.
Gstaad is expensive. Let's just get that out of the way first.
But for the right group, it can be exactly the destination you're looking for.
What you can expect from this area.
Saanenmöser · SwitzerlandThe raclette walk.
You collect a raclette kit yourself from a little shop in the village, walk up the mountain to a hut that appears in no brochure, and light the fire yourself. Nobody arranges it for you. No guide, no group activity, no programme. That is exactly why it works, and why people are still talking about it months later.
Skiing with beginners and advanced skiers in Gstaad
Gstaad is friendly to beginners. Experienced skiers have options too, but the character is different from the far more sporty St. Anton or Sölden. That makes it interesting for a group where the differences in ability are large.
Luxury, calm and activities off the slopes
Gstaad doesn't have to become a trip where everyone is locked into a tight programme from breakfast to dinner. The space and the higher level of service can be part of the experience in themselves. A long lunch can sometimes be a better choice here than yet another organised activity.
Hotels for company groups in Gstaad and Saanenmöser
At this destination the choice of hotel has an enormous impact on the budget. That's why we look at what you actually need. Luxury for its own sake makes little sense. Luxury because it fits the team and the purpose of the trip does.
Getting to Gstaad from the Netherlands
Flying via Geneva with a transfer is one option. Train, bus and car can also be worthwhile depending on the group. We include transport in the overall proposal.
Gstaad works best for teams who recognise this.
- You deliberately choose the premium segment.
- Quality, calm and service matter more than budget, whether that's a leadership team or a larger group.
- A group of 50 is possible too, as long as you understand what that choice means financially.
- Budget is a heavy factor.
- Après-ski is a priority.
- The group is mostly serious, hard-charging skiers. If image matters but Gstaad goes too far financially, Kitzbühel is often a smarter alternative.

Gstaad for company trips
Gstaad is less about racking up as many piste kilometres as possible and more about the complete experience. Luxury, calm, service and image play a bigger role here. At the same time the area is accessible for beginners, and there are good options for colleagues who don't want to ski at all.
When the group values luxury, service, calm, good restaurants and a trip that isn't all about skiing. Is everyone mainly keen to ski hard for three days and then dive straight into the après-ski? Then we probably wouldn't spend the extra money on Gstaad.
Plenty. And that matters, because on a premium company trip in particular you don't want colleagues who don't ski to feel like second-rate participants. So we build a programme in which they can take part fully as well.
You don't necessarily have to stay in the middle of Gstaad to make use of the region. Saanenmöser can be attractive for groups thanks to its location, hotels and access to the ski area. We actually prefer it: you're closer to the slopes and you're not stuck in traffic driving in and out of Gstaad every day. This is exactly the kind of choice where local knowledge can make a real difference.
We look at snow conditions, how busy it is, availability and price. Around popular holiday weeks and public holidays, both the atmosphere and the price level can change considerably.
More than our Austrian destinations. A large, luxury company trip can run up a serious bill here. That's why we ask about the budget early during the intake. Not because we want to know how much we can spend, but because there's no point designing a beautiful trip that then never gets past management or Finance.
Yes.
Yes, and for mixed groups in particular Gstaad has interesting options.
Yes, depending on the period and availability.
Generally yes. That's why we discuss the budget early in the process.
